A Peak Inside Harriett's Home.

Inspired by a recent post from Stella over at Confessions of a Female Drag Queen I thought I would share with you guys a glimpse inside my home! I share a flat with four others in Shoreditch, East London just at the end of the wonderful Columbia Road. Our kitchen and bathroom aren't too exciting so I shalt bore you with snaps of our tumble dryer. Instead here's a peak into my room, stuffed full with all the clutter I'm sure you imagined it to have.

I am lucky to have such a large room in London, especially one with two

huge sash windows. Over them I hang some of my favourite sheer clothing

and Victorian bodices. On the right of my dressing table is my 1967 Hacker

record player and the sewing area. To the left is the sofa and coffee table.

First, I love your blog, I have rekindled my love of palazzo pants entirely because of Aimee and since my favourite pastime is typing 'edwardian' into etsy, I am very excited for the next post.

I wanted to ask, not just you, but your (clearly very) discerning readers. I am off for a weekend in Bath (I'm from Dublin) with boyfriend. I am dedicating a day to vintage and charity shopping and is there anywhere that I should go (surrounding areas too!). And is there anything else I shouldn't miss, that I could do with the boyfriend? I realise, H & A are based in London, but I don't know any blogs based in the area and I figure someone could make a recommendation!

Hello Claire, i thought i'd just quickly mention that when i was in bath last year (i'm from Melbourne) i stumbled across Vintage to Vogue, tucked away down a side street. Admittedly didnt actually buy anything from there, but it was a lovely shop to browse. http://www.vintagetovoguebath.co.uk/

Wish i was going back to Bath (or the Uk in general), have a lovely time!

What a beautiful space; it looks so calm and elegant. I too hang up my most delicate antique garments; my old roommates thought I was mad, but they're just as beautiful as as a work of art, as your space proves!

Oh what a divine wee nest you live in! I'm so glad to hear that others have the eternal problem of collapsing clothing racks, not just me! I'm having a right lovely perve at all your glorious frocks and stoles hanging off the walls and your pictures and dried bunches of flowers are magical:)) xoxo

What a darling space! I love how you have clothes hung on the wall about the room; I did that in our last apartment and loved the color it added to the walls. :) Thanks for sharing a peek inside your space!

Love your room! You've made such a good use of the space, inspiring me to perhaps shuffle a few things round our little den in Brighton.

Got any trips planned to Brighton again?

Hope you have a lovely time in Berlin, I fell in love when I went in December, you should definitly try to pop into the DDR Hotel - Ostel, in the East, they even have a DDR themed restorant next door! I put up some pictures after we went in December, you should take a peek :)

I got very inspired by these photos of your little den :D It looks pretty much how I imagined it too look like, very sweet, a bit dusty and decadent, but very "you". Thank you for sharing these lovely photos! KissKiss!
